I can't help it...that smiling marshmallow is one of my absolute favorite files ever. I big puffy ❤ it!

I could make a whole series of cards and use that face over and over and over.

 It's so cute I can't stand it! 

I'm sorry, forgive me for making yet another smiling food card...but it's a severe weakness, it is!

I was feeling cocoa-y and wanting to create a warm, fuzzy card. 

Stick with me and my quirks...it's at least entertaining, if nothing else. ❤

I used the S'mores Cutting Files for this card:

This card, gah! I heart it!

As always, check back to the Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons blog for daily inspiration! Tomorrow there will be a Guest Designer, a freebie and I know Lisa's been busy working on new files!! ❤

Life is Delicious

 Howdy! Leah Schaeffer here sharing a little Summer delight! S'mores! Yum! 

 I was saying over at my blog that I was having trouble coming up with a design. Just a little creative freeze but after coming up with the super big graham cracker, the rest came together very quickly. I think that may be a good trick when you are stuck. Come on with at least one grand element for a page and then create around that. That can help, promise! 

 Well these fun photos are from a recent trip to the beach. We had a great time, obviously! LOL! 

 The page was fine as is but having chose a busy background pattern I felt like there needed to be a bit more color around the page. Which is why I chose to add in some punched leaves, the colors directly coordinating with the leaves from the background paper. It's those small details that really add up in the end! Like stamping on the large word in my title piece adds just a bit more interest (and yes, I know I didn't spell it right, oh well!)

S'mores Cutting File
 A bit of a shorty post but hey, it's Monday! Get in, get inspired…get out! =)

❤*{Hello Sweet Thursday!}*❤

Thursday is a good day because it means it's almost Friday. I'm always happy when Thursday comes around. ❤ These are the simple things that make Shannon happy. 

This Thursday is especially good because in this part of the world, or otherwise fondly known as Hades, school is out in one week. I can finally breathe, stop packing lunches and sleep in!

I created this card to share with you using the S'mores Cutting Files.

I am apparently in love ❤ with Lisa's smiling foods. I reach for them every time. They make me happy!!! I am hoping for more soon -- coughcoughhinthintLisacoughcough!

Here's the card! As always, *{THANKS}* for letting me share with you!

Here's a close up ❤

Don't forget that Lisa has a fantastic monthly challenge going on. This month it's all things girl! You can CLICK HERE for details and to link up! 

❤❤❤ Make sure you check the PPPR Blog in the a.m. for a Friday Freebie, a new file & a fantastic Guest Designer Feature!! ❤❤❤
